User blog comment:TrinityFlare/Question About Steelix?/@comment-30134594-20170404095902/@comment-30134594-20170404203432

Ye, people think that Steelix can resist fire, but welp, it can't. People think it could because sometimes they mistake Steelix for a Steel/Rock Type, and when they realize it's a ground type, they question why it couldn't resist fire. If you want your Steelix to live for more than one turn when it comes down to the opponent using Stab Fire moves, make sure it has Sturdy as its ability, and if not, go buy a Ability Capsule at the Bp shop, but that's about it unless you wanna teach your Steelix rock slide as it is x2 against Fire types and x4 against Fire/Flying * Charizard and Charizard Y.*
